Abstract
A method and system for providing natural language processing in a communication system is disclosed. A voice request is generated with a remote terminal that is transmitted to a base station. A voice recognition application is then used to identify a plurality of words that are contained in the voice request. After the words are identified, a grammar associated with each word is also identified. Once the grammars have been identified, each word is categorized into a respective grammar category. A structured response is then generated to the voice request with a response generation application.
Claims24
A method of providing natural language processing in a communication system, comprising the steps of:
- generating a voice request with a remote terminal;
- transmitting said voice request to a base station;
- identifying a plurality of words contained in said voice request with a voice recognition application;
- identifying a grammar associated with each said word;
- categorizing each said word into a respective grammar category;
- and
- generating a structured response to said voice request with a response generation application.
A wireless communication system with natural language processing, comprising:
- a remote terminal connected to a base station, wherein a user of said remote terminal is capable of generating a voice request that is transmitted to said base station;
- a voice recognition application connected to said base station, wherein said voice recognition application identifies a plurality of words contained in said voice request;
- a natural language processing application connected to said voice recognition application, wherein said natural language processing application generates a structured request based on the words contained in said voice request;
- and
- a response generation application connected to said natural language processing application for generating a structured response to said structured request.
A method of providing natural language processing in a location-based services system, comprising the steps of:
- generating a voice request with a remote terminal;
- transmitting said voice request to a base station;
- identifying a plurality of words contained in said voice request with a voice recognition application;
- identifying a grammar associated with each said word;
- categorizing each said word into a respective grammar category;
- determining the geographic location of said remote terminal;
- and
- generating a structured response to said voice request with a response generation application that is within a predetermined geographic location of said remote terminal.
